No, Colin O'Donoghue is NOT guest starring in Outlander season four
Caitriona Balfe had fans in a tizzy with an erroneous tweet
Bad news, Outlander fans: Colin O'Donoghue will not be making an appearance in the show's upcoming fourth season.
For one hot minute on Tuesday, a tweet from Caitriona Balfe, which tagged the Irish actor in a post thanking all of her Outlander collaborators as filming wrapped on season four, had fans convinced that he would feature in the new episodes in one way or another.
